The 49th-Annual Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction: January 11–19 The Paul Walker Collection Celebrates the Actor’s Life and Love for Cars written by David M. Brown “I’m an actor –– that’s my job, but it’s not my life,” the late Paul Walker once said. “I have a lot of other interests, too.”

These included passions for family, philanthropy and automobiles, which he enjoyed in daily life and on screen as the protagonist of six Fast and Furious movies, which won worldwide box-office attention for more than a decade.

A group of 21 collectible vehicles from his eclectic collection will be offered at the 49th Annual Barrett-Jackson Auction, January 11–19, 2020, at WestWorld of Scottsdale. Established in 1971, the Scottsdale-based company, The World’s Greatest Collector Car Auctions, also produces annual events in Palm Beach, Florida; at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut; and Las Vegas, Nevada.

Seven BMW M3s –– two E30 M3s and five E36 M3 Lightweights –– highlight the Paul Walker Collection as well as a never-raced 2013 Ford Boss 302S race car and a custom 2009 Nissan 370Z.

Volume XVI, Number 12

The M3 septet includes two E30s: a 1988 (Lot #1374) and a 1991 coupe (Lot #1371.1). Both in Alpine White II, the early models are two of the 5,000 iterations sold in the United States from 1988–91. At just 2,867 pounds, the cars deliver superior handling, with MacPherson Strut/semi-trailing arm suspension, a large rear antiroll bar, revalved shocks and flared fenders and quarter panels.

With 1,500 victories making it the most successful touring car ever, the M3 packed a 2.3-liter inline-4 producing 195 horses and 170 ft/lbs of torque; it’s tied to a 5-speed Getrag tranny and a limited-slip differential.

The M3 Lightweights (Lots #1371, #1372, #1372.1, #1373, #1373.1) are the homologation specials for BMW North America, built for the IMSA Firehawk series. Weighing 2,950 pounds, they are about 220 pounds lighter than standard models, resulting from components such as aluminum doors, forged magnesium wheels and interior carbon fiber trim. Also casting out pounds are deletes such as radio, air-conditioning and the tool kit.

Paul Walker’s 1995 BMW M3 Lightweight, Lot #1372.1

The BMW S50 3.0-liter inline-6 engine, rated at 240 horsepower and 225 ft/lbs of torque, is linked to a 5-speed manual and a 3:23 final drive ratio. Each engine was hand selected

by BMW engineers after extensive track testing. Nearly all had a rear wing and front spoiler and Alpine White III paint finished with BMW Motorsport-colored checkered flag livery on the left front and right-rear corners.

“This group of five of the roughly 126 Lightweights produced in 1995 is probably the first time so many have appeared for sale in one place,” says Jeff Catlin, showroom division manager for Barrett-Jackson, who has been overseeing the collection in anticipation of its sale during the Scottsdale Auction, culminating in marquee-car appearances Saturday night, January 18.

“We’re proud to help continue Paul Walker’s legacy by offering his esteemed collection to their new caretakers at our flagship Scottsdale event,” says Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. “Whoever buys them in January, it’s our hope that they will bring the same kind of joy to their homes that they brought Paul.”

Fast and Furious A Saturday-night feature car is a never-raced 2013 Ford Boss 302S (Lot #1374.1), one of 50, powered by a 5.0-liter Ford Racing V-8 with Ford Racing PCS software and many other

Volume XVI, Number 12

official Ford Racing components. A 6-speed TREMEC T6060 manual transmission with Exedy clutch delivers the power to a Torsen T2R differential with 3.73 gears.

The suspension includes coilover dampers, lower control arms with a Delrin bushing kit, Ford Racing anti-toll bar and Panhard bar and Brembo four-piston front racing brakes.

Other features include a RECARO HANS Pro Racer seat, front splitter and adjustable carbon fiber wing.

Joining the Boss 302S on the podium during the Scottsdale auction will be a custom 2009 Nissan 370Z (Lot #730) with only 2,623 miles; it appeared in Fast Five. Its VQ 3.7-liter V-6 outputs 332 horses and has a 5-speed manual transmission as well as many performance upgrades. In Brilliant Metallic Silver, appointed with graphics from Paul Walker’s charity, Reach Out Worldwide, the car includes teal Volk TE37 wheels and Hankook tires, RECARO HANS Pro Racer Seat and a detachable NRG steering wheel.

“Paul Walker’s collection spanned five decades of automotive excellence and truly reflected his personal taste,” says Steve Davis, president of Barrett-Jackson. “Paul’s passion for performance was especially expressed in the cars he loved. This group of vehicles also represents the evolution of the hobby, as collectors are clearly broadening their horizons and diversifying their collections.”

Paul Walker’s 2013 Ford Mustang Boss 302S Race Car, Lot #1374.1

Diversification is exemplified by other vehicles that Walker enjoyed. Two additional performance cars are a race-built 1989 Nissan Skyline (Lot #730.1) and, from 11 years later, a 2000 Audi S4 2.7 Quattro (Lot #373.1).

The third, a 2006 Toyota Tundra Access Cab SR5 Pickup (Lot #374) can tow up to 6,500 pounds and carry a payload of 1,580 pounds, In Phantom Grey over beige with black wheels, it has the 4.7-liter DOHC 32-valve 2-UZ-FE V-8.

The Audi features a 90-degree 2.7-liter V-6 with two parallel BorgWarner turbos. The car produces 261 horsepower and 295 ft/lbs of torque, with each cylinder fed by five valves. All wheels are driven by a Torsen T-2 quattro all-wheel-drive system. A six-speed manual is also included.

He was also prescient in acquiring a 1995 Ford Bronco (Lot #731) as these fifth-generation trucks are now among the most popular among collectors. Walker’s is an Eddie Bauer Edition, with the 351-cid Windsor V-8 and four-wheel drive, liveried in black on a tan leather interior. It even has one of those massive early cell phones.

Built for the track, the earlier Nissan in Gun Gray carries the legendary Godzilla RB26DETT 2.6-liter inline-6 engine with twin turbos and the ATTESSA all-wheel-drive system.

Upgrades include a full roll cage, Enkei RPF1 wheels and Endless brake calipers.

Trucks, Cycles, Projects and a Bronco A trio of trucks were Walker’s utilitarian vehicles; he was equally happy on the film set and the track and on his ranch.

The earliest is a 2003 Ford F-250 Super Duty Pickup (Lot #374.1), with the Powerstroke 7.3-liter turbo diesel, a V-8 with 175 horses and a muscular 525 ft/lbs of torque. The workhorse has an extended cab and short bed.

From the next year, a 2004 GMC Sierra K2500HD (Lot #375.1) is also a turbo diesel, 300 horsepower and 520 ft/lbs of torque, with an Allison 1000 5-speed and four-wheel drive.

Volume XVI, Number 12

Two-wheel ecstasy was part of his life, too. Three motorcycles to be offered are a ’40s-inspired 2005 Harley-Davidson FLTSCI Custom (Lot #377), built by Road Dog Customs in California; 2011 BMW F800GS (Lot #376.1), with an 800-cc parallel twin engine, weighing in at 392 pounds; and a 2008 Suzuki DRZ-400SM (Lot #373), featuring a 398-cc DOHC liquid-cooled engine and a 5-speed gearbox, the road-legal version of the DR-400S. Another Chevy II, a Nova Custom Coupe (Lot #731.1) resulted from a meeting between Year One president Kevin King and Walker during the filming of 2Fast2Furious; it features large Wheel Vintigues billet rallye wheels and BG Goodrich G-Force tires, 245/45-17 in the front and 295/35-18 out back.

Two 1960s Chevys have unique sentimental value, as both were project cars. One that he started is a 1963 Chevy II Nova

Paul Walker’s 1964 Chevelle 300 Wagon, Lot #376

Wagon (Lot #375) and, from the following year, a relatively rare Chevelle 300 W Wagon (Lot #376) was a future project.

One of just 2,710 in 1964, it’s a classic “surf wagon,” Jackson says. “To finish Paul’s vision,” he notes, “would be an honor for the new owner.”

The Paul Walker Legacy The sale of his cars at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 49 is an opportunity to celebrate Paul Walker’s other passions, too: his love for his daughter, Meadow, his brothers and sisters and friends; his charitable work, particularly through Reach Out Worldwide, founded in 2010; a love for the sea; and his everyday acts of kindness.

“Paul was the kind of person who valued and respected others,” says his longtime friend, Brandon Birtell, who is the executor of the Walker estate, which will receive all funds raised from the auction of the cars. He was Walker’s producing partner for 12plus years on almost all of his films, including the Fast franchise.

“He would go out of his way to do the simplest things, from stopping to open the door for others, making sure he looked someone in the eye when they were speaking or help someone that clearly needed to be helped,” Birtell says.

Walker shared his great automotive joy and knowledge with him. “We spent a lot of time in some of these cars, talking cars, talking life,” he says. “We all love that sense of freedom, but for him it was a unique haven of peace, control and anonymity. All these vehicles are an expression of Paul’s lifestyle. The stories are right in the cars.”

Remember the devastating January 2010 earthquake that

Volume XVI, Number 12

ripped through the poor island nation of Haiti? Walker was there with a relief team. That effort created Reach Out Worldwide (ROWW) to provide resources, including personnel for disaster response.

He loved the sea, where he spent much of his nonfamily free time when he wasn’t driving. In addition to his car and action movies, he completed a marine biology series, Expedition Great White with National Geographic, tagging great white sharks for study.

Walker’s charitable work continues through the Paul Walker Foundation, founded by Meadow to “do good” by providing grants, scholarship opportunities and acts of goodwill.

“Meadow created the Foundation as a way to honor her father and keep his spirit alive through supporting the things he was passionate about. It’s a way of helping others do things he would have wanted to do himself,” says Birtell, who proudly helps her accomplish its goals. “She’s so much like her dad; it’s pretty amazing how life works. I know he’s there with her and insanely proud.”

“Paul’s work on screen helped create a global family with the ‘Fast’ franchise centered on car culture. He’s the modern-day Steve McQueen. Paul Newman. More importantly, he had a special way of making everyone feel valued, welcome, appreciated. It spoke to his character and why he is loved by so many.”

Concours in the Hills – Zero to 950 in 6 The current benchmark for high-performance cars is to accelerate from zero to 60MPH in less than 3 seconds, but Concours in the Hills has gone from zero to 950 in just six - years, that is. Let’s clarify that. The first show was in 2014 but six short years later in 2019 there were about 950 cars on display. In fact, the show has broken records in all four categories each successive year, growing to an estimated 25,000 spectators, 108 dealers and sponsors, and over $155,000 raised for Phoenix Children’s Hospital.

The show was started by Peter Volny, a life-long car aficionado.

While there were many car shows across the valley of the sun, they were all held in parking lots where the cars were close together and it was difficult, if not impossible, to prevent non-show cars from having access. If someone left their SUV or pick-up truck overnight, you might have a million-dollar Ferrari next to it, and that just doesn’t look good It is now the largest car show of its type in Arizona drawing entries from all over the state and as far away as California, Nevada and Colorado. Volny attributes the success to the venue, which is on the gently rolling hills of a park surrounding a lake with America’s tallest fountain and a back-

drop of rugged mountain peaks.

The show is not a formal “white gloves” concours but really a fun event designed to showcase a wide variety of domestic and imported vehicles and provide an opportunity for car lovers to meet new people and make new friends. The show is arranged by vehicle brand to encourage exhibitors to make those new acquaintances. Awards are given for Best Domestic, Best Import and Best of Show with a new award this year for Best Car Club Display.

One obstacle as the show grew its boundaries was entrants who didn’t want to be in the “boondocks” on the outer edges of the show. This was countered in 2017 by inviting the Army Aviation Heritage Foundation to fly in their genuine Vietnam-era Cobra Gunship Helicopter around which the organizers parked 31 Cobras, attracting huge crowds. In 2018 the United States Marine Corps flew in the current version of the Cobra called the Viper so naturally there were a group of Vipers arranged around that and even larger crowds. In 2019 there were five helicopters on display and more are expected in 2020. There is now a large military vehicle section.

The show is officially declared open by a group of famous racing car drivers who live in the valley. In the past this has included two-time Indy 500 winner Arie Luyendyk, Daytona 24 Hour winner Didier Theys, Indy-Car Champion Paul Tracy, Sports Car World Champion Bob Bondurant, Indy-Car Driver Lyn St. James, and Mirage Driver and Team Owner Harley Cluxton. All have been invited again, plus a few others, and it is hoped that most, if not all, will once again open the show. This is done by them announcing “Gentlemen, and Ladies, Start Your Engines� at which time all the cars fire up and rev their motors, which may actually register on the Richter Scale.

The 2020 Concours in the Hills will be held on Saturday February 8, 2019 and the organizers are hoping to break all the records yet again. Vehicle entries are just $60 while spectators are free. Owners can register at: www.givetopchf.org/ concoursinthehills The 100% charity show is owned by Scuderia Southwest, who are also organizers of the monthly Scottsdale Motorsports Gathering which is commonly called Cars & Coffee.

Frankly Speaking

Three Premier Homes at Desert Highlands written by David M. Brown For almost four decades, the luxury golf community of Desert Highlands has garnered praise for its site-sensitive homes and high-quality amenities. “Distinguished,” “Elite,” say home and golf magazines, “Unbeatable,” says one resident.

range of amenities and services and a lifestyle that is unparalleled even in our area of great desert communities,” says Joan Sykora, the community’s director of relations and sales.

In addition, residents and their guests can play 13 tennis courts on grass, clay and hard surfaces, stay in shape in the 7,700-square-foot fitness center, swim at the community pool, walk their dogs at a dedicated park and take part in regular “yappy hours.” A catch-and-release fish pond is also popular. Children can attend Cave Creek Unified District schools or area charters.

Centering on landmark 3,100-foot-high Pinnacle Peak, the 850-acre guard-gated community in north Scottsdale features an 18-hole par-72 championship course (Jack Nicklaus’ first Signature design and site of the first Skins Game in 1983); a challenging Gary Panks’ 18-hole putting course; a recently remodeled 30,000-square-foot Southwestern-style clubhouse; and 535 luxury custom homes.

Three of those are highlighted here, offered by the highperforming Private Client Group, Russ Lyon | Sotheby’s International Realty, Scottsdale, led by Frank Aazami, Realtor.

“Our homeowners and their guests have complete peace of mind with our 24/7 guarded and gated entrance and roaming security patrol, and we’re adjacent to the McDowell Mountain Preserve for superlative outdoor recreation,” she adds.

“Desert Highlands is a highly sought-after community, not just for its outstanding golf experience but for our incredible

“Desert Highlands is close to the best shopping and restaurants North Scottsdale has to offer and is a short jaunt to Carefree

and Cave Creek with their festivals and restaurants,” Aazami notes. “And, the Loop 101 is nearby to easily access other Valley locations and state highways.”

for miles and great astronomical viewing.

Off the deck on the second level is the master bathroom, with a separate shower and tub, double sinks, a private toilet room and bidet. Another master is downstairs with a walk-in closet and a sitting room. The home has a three-car garage.

The vision of celebrated developer Lyle Anderson, Desert Highlands has no telephone lines, no rooftop HVAC units and lush desert-only front yards. After moving from Seattle to Scottsdale in 1975, he wanted to acquire property on the south face of Pinnacle Peak. “I found it to be enchanting,” he wrote in the Desert Highlands 25th-anniversary book.

Other features include three fireplaces: in the living room, master bedroom and on the rear patio. Niches have appropriate lighting to showcase your artwork. Energy features include dual-pane windows and multi-zone cooling and heating.

“By 1980, I was ready to develop what I envisioned to be the finest community in the Southwest, where residents would make friendships, renew old acquaintances, enjoy time with their families or in peaceful solitude, host visitors and parties, celebrate milestone events and create a lifetime of memories.

Desert Highlands has been a terrific life’s journey for me –– better than I ever could have imagined.”

Emphasizing the indoor/outdoor Arizona lifestyle, the spacious and functional floor plan is a superlative living environment with meticulous attention to details.

The owners, who are downsizing in Desert Highlands, took about four of their six years in the home remodeling it to the highest level. The wife is an interior design consultant and coordinated much of the work, including the custom kitchen cabinetry, countertops and stairwell wrought-iron railings, which dramatically lead to a cozy landing.

Fully Remodeled Two-Level, Price-Point Perfect: #456 This fully remodeled 4,200-square-foot Rustic Modern home on a half-acre combines cul-de-sac privacy with unobstructed mountain and city-lights views, a pool and waterfall, heated spa and direct connection to the community sidewalk accessing the tennis courts.

Other updates include a new foam roof, new wiring, AC/ heat pump, a pool resurface/equipment, LED lighting, a high-capacity tankless water heater, flooring, high-end appliances and outdoor pavers. All seven bathrooms were updated about a year ago. No changes were made to the exterior, which remains in spirit with the neighborhood and High Sonoran Desert.

Perfect for a family or couple who loves to entertain, the fourbedroom-plus-office two-level includes theater and game rooms, gourmet kitchen and a sunset deck offering views

“I sit here every night and enjoy the mountain, the water, and the sunsets are spectacular with different colors against the mountain, changing all the time,” the husband says, noting that the temperature at Desert Highlands is about four or five degrees cooler than that in lower Valley areas.

“It’s a great community to live.”

Sited on one of the largest Desert Highlands lots at an acre-plus, the 6,564-square-foot custom is next to the 11th fairway with unobstructed views of Pinnacle Peak Mountain indoors and out.

Built in 1994, the four-bedroom, six-bathroom two-level has distinguishing radiused design features inside and out as well as extensive dual-pane glass for those great high desert views the community is known for. Natural light illuminates the massive entertainment area. A three-car garage is attached.

“This home is the perfect size, and the transitional design allows you to put your furniture in place and begin your Desert Highlands experience immediately,” says Tanya Hoffman, Realtor®, a Private Client Group associate who is co-brokering.

Residents in the home since 2006, the owners invested about $1 million in upgrades during the past few years. This includes a gourmet eat-in kitchen remodel with features such as Miele appliances, gas cooktop, double ovens and a large Sub-Zero wine refrigerator. The area includes a walk-in pantry, breakfast bar and separate breakfast room.

This home, Aazami says, “is timeless, move-in ready and fabulously priced.”

It’s offered at $1,650,000.

A Home as Art, Home-Selling as an Art Form: #601 A buffer of mature desert landscaping separates the home from the golf course. The private resort-style backyard has a pool/heated spa, large covered patio, built-in barbecue, a shuffleboard court and a view deck.

“Home as Art” aptly describes this superb Contemporary/ Transitional home: “A prestigious home in a prestigious community!” Aazami says.

both time and money,” he adds. “We welcome learning about and broadcasting your home’s story.”

Making the entire process comfortable and successful is customer service at the highest echelon: “We are efficient, we build quality relationships, we produce results.”

An additional master downstairs also has a walk-in closet and a sitting room. Another office is downstairs as well as a library and exercise room.

Re-Engineered, Renovated, Remarkable: #304 Following a to-the-studs renovation, this 5,600-square foot Modern Mediterranean includes a stand-alone 500-squarefoot casita on three-quarters of an acre.

Other features include skylights, two gas fireplaces, a central vacuum, and 36-inch-wide hallways for accessibility. Green assets are a load controller and multi-zone HVAC. “This home was on the market for about a year with another agency, and the Private Client Group was able to seal the deal with a few weeks on the market plus multiple interests behind it,” Aazami says. His 14 associates, including Hoffman, work from key areas throughout the state and network with Russ Lyon | Sotheby’s agents in 90 markets worldwide.

Enjoy golf course, city lights, mountain and sunset views as the single-level five-bedroom, five-bathroom home is located on the 5th fairway. The resort-style backyard, with new landscaping and pavers, centers on a completed updated 40,000gallon custom swimming pool and heated spa. A master retreat with an adjacent home office is secluded from the secondary bedrooms on the other side of the home.

“In fact, we closed escrow on 601,” he adds. “A list of top real estate professionals in other markets across the globe within our Private Client Group Team can be found on our PCGSIR.com website. You can also find a video clip of each one of us and all of our inventory there.

Aazami explains that Desert Highlands does not charge qualified investors an upfront membership fee for purchasing a home in the community with the intention of upgrading/ renovating and reselling. Instead, following sale to the eventual resident, the deferred fee is paid.

“We believe our home and lots can all have a voice that needs to be broadcasted in a meaningful way; our investment in creating these home-video stories has gained our sellers

“This original Desert Highlands home has not just been remodeled; it has been re-engineered,” Hoffman says. “It’s cozy but spacious. It’s ready for new owners.”

The remodel begins at the entry, where a new metal and glass door delivers more street appeal and a clear view through the formal living area to the backyard, says Lolly Mackenzie, owner of reThink Interiors, the Scottsdalebased design firm for the renovation and sales staging. The company worked with consultant Deidre Turley for the timeless, chic, warm design.

and cellulose insulation, metal multi-pane windows; clay tile roof and underlayment, A/C units, water heaters and garage doors. New interior details include raised-panel wood doors, self-closing hardwood cabinetry and premier plumbing fixtures.

The master bedroom has a separate shower, jetted tub, double sinks, a toilet room, and the junior master a separate exit, a walk-in closet and sitting room. The guesthouse was redesigned for better privacy, and a luxurious private bath added. A door for better pool access and a private grill area are also new.

Dated features were removed. The floor-to-ceiling windows have been opened up by removing the heavy shutters to celebrate the back yard. The wall between kitchen, dining and great room was eliminated to create a long site line to the new concrete precast fireplace in the great room. And, all but two steps have been eliminated throughout the home, which originally had a sunken great room and master bedroom.

“The entire home has been extensively and dramatically remodeled with the highest quality finishes to meet Desert Highlands community standards,” Mackenzie says. “We are very proud of the outcome.”

The kitchen, bar, laundry and all baths received new tile, cabinetry and top-of-the-line plumbing and commercial-grade appliances from vendors such as Sub-Zero Wolf. European oak floors have been placed throughout the home. The bar area, with a new marble countertop, includes a wine wall – – a focal point for an entertainer and wine lover.

The newest addition to Desert Highlands, this home is offered at $2.75 million. For more about the community, see deserthighlandsscottsdale.com.

Venn Construction Vennsgiving Annual Celebration written by Stephanie Fogelson To our Clients, Partners and Friends, Each year our team at Venn kicks off the holiday season with our coveted “Vennsgiving” event. It’s a fun twist on Thanksgiving and represents our chance to reflect on the year, thank our clients for their support and raise a glass to future successes. This year we took full advantage of our home office located in the Scottsdale Ice Den by booking out the main sheet of ice for an epic game of Broomball. Our guests ranging from architects, non-profit leaders, city officials, physicians, developers and subcontractors laced up to sweat it out on the ice. Like years before, the corporate titles didn’t matter and all rolled up their sport coats to fight (absolutely literally) for the coveted “2019 Championship Broomball Trophy.”

As you wind down the 2019 season and brace for the continued commercial real-estate growth in 2020 please take that extra moment to reflect, give thanks and join us in the celebration of the best year yet to come!

Pat Hickey’s Paradise Valley Estate

A Spanish Colonial kept under wraps features luxury around every corner written by Nick Esquer Quietly set at the northeastern reach of Mummy Mountain and across from the Phoenix Mountain Preserve is a sprawling Spanish Colonial estate built with a blend of luxury and simplicity. Complete with seven bedrooms, sixand-a-half bathrooms, countless personal amenities and touches, and plenty of space for entertaining this winter, the Paradise Valley estate stands as a testament toward private and personalized luxury.

A roundabout drive--which can double as a car valet for guests--leads you to the arching driveway featuring hand-carved Cantera stone detailing, giving you just a sliver of what to expect throughout the home. Located at 5129 E Desert Jewel Dr., the home sits on an acre of desert dwelling, surrounded by rolling hills and views of Paradise Valley’s mountain region.

Inside the home, residents can breeze past the carved Spanish-style columns and walk from one room to the next along luxurious walkways and halls outfitted with the same hand-carved stone touches seen from the outside.

A foyer breaks off into every direction, offering glimpses into a piano room, a dining room, a den, and a sitting room before the rest of the 7,900-square foot home is explored. Bathed in natural light, each room is built with plenty of personal attention to not only stand out on its own but blend in with the rest of the home’s luxurious aesthetics.

A master suite comes complete with high-arching ceilings, a fireplace for chilly desert nights, and large sliding windows to get a view of the natural surroundings. The bathroom features a garden tub for some personal relaxation time and faces dual walk-in closets. In continuing the theme of relaxation, residents who occupy the master suite can take advantage of the spa-like patio connecting the bedroom to the rest of the outside dwelling.

Patio space for the main house offers up opportunities for unrivaled luxury and entertaining. A wraparound outdoor seating area surrounds a resort-style multi-level pool and jacuzzi. Back inside the estate, a grand room presents the perfect party hosting and the home theater offers up a night at the movies without having to worry about traffic or noisy theatergoers.

Needing to get some work done? A sizeable den has been converted into a space that lets you focus on weekend business. Need to get a good sweat in? Head down the limestone-tiled hallway to an in-house gym where you can start or end the day productively.

Family and friends can occupy the rest of the rooms, all complete with high ceilings, personal bathrooms, and enough space to relax during the holidays or on vacations.

And speaking of guest space, the home features a four-car garage, perfect for holidays and family vacations. Or, for car buffs, this presents a great space to house classic rides and work on passion projects under the hood.

For any gourmets in the home, a large island sits between carved pantry doors and an open hearth-style cooking center, giving you room to create decadent dishes. And for wine aficionados, a wall-to-wall wine cellar allows you to house your most prized bottles of red.

Expecting more company to come stay? Then open up the adjoining two-bedroom casita, which houses a fully-flexed kitchen in the same styling as the main house. For those staying in the guest house, they can take advantage of their own piece of personalized luxury on the private patio featuring firepits and space for wall-to-wall entertainment.

The Mercedes-Maybach GLS A new form of luxury The Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 4MATIC represents a new form of luxury in the SUV segment. It extends the portfolio of the Mercedes-Maybach brand by combining the body design and technical basis of the GLS with the luxury of a top-class sedan. Its spacious interior with the highest-grade materials and extremely effective noise insulation creates a stylish and luxurious atmosphere. From their pleasantly elevated seating position, thanks to electronically operated roller sun blinds on the two rear side windows, the passengers can decide for themselves how much of their surroundings they want to see.

The AIRMATIC suspension included with the fully-active EACTIVE BODY CONTROL system effectively keeps the road bumps at bay. For the first time there is a dedicated Maybach drive program that ensures even more comfort. Access and egress are also highly convenient: when the doors are opened, the vehicle is lowered slightly, and an illuminated running board made of anodized aluminum quickly and silently emerges on the respective side of the vehicle. The V8 engine with a displacement of four liters, which can develop 550 hp and 538 lb-ft of torque, is an engine variant developed exclusively for Maybach and moves the car discreetly and powerfully. The engine is combined with the 48-volt system EQ Boost.

The Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 4MATIC will go on sale in the U.S. in the second half of 2020.

lights around the side windows, and the chrome inserts in the side sill panels, lend dignity and elegance to the profile. The 22 or 23-inch wheels were developed exclusively for this model, with the 23-inch version echoing the pinstripe theme.

The tailpipe trim elements with a small cross rib emphasize the model's identity as a Mercedes-Maybach. The same applies to the brand emblem, which is positioned at various points such as on the D-pillar. As a special, Maybach-specific feature, two-tone paintwork is available in eight different, elegant color combinations.

Another eye-catching feature of the Mercedes-Maybach GLS is the electronically extending running boards. They make accessing and leaving the high seating position both convenient and safe. With surfaces of anodized aluminum laced with black rubber strips, illuminated in the dark and particularly wide in the area of the rear doors, they ensure a very special visual appeal. When in their retracted state, the running boards are concealed behind the side sill panels. If a rear door is opened, the running board on the side concerned automatically swings into position in around one second.

This default setting can be changed using a special menu in the MBUX infotainment system. see www.HIghline-Autos.com to read full story

The Mercedes-Benz star surmounts the hood in the classic way, while the fine, vertical chrome struts of the Maybach radiator grille create a pinstripe effect. Effective chrome high-

GreatGarages The Mini/MINI Celebrates the Big 60 written by David M. Brown Devotees love their MINIs in many ways.

A frequent thought is that they’re just so cute and lovable.

But that wasn’t the normal take in 1959, when Alec Issigonis designed the first Mini for British Motor Corporation (BMC), later part of British Leyland. The eminently pragmatic Turkish/ Greek mechanical engineer and racer had spent his formative years at British manufacturers, Humber, Morris, Alvis and then Morris again. He was an often crusty man of considerable achievement; he did not design cute or lovable things.

“When the wraps came off the first Mini, 60 years ago this year, there was never any question that the car was cute or lovable,” says Giles Chapman, the distinguished British automotive writer whose most recent work is MINI: 60 Years from Motorbooks. “If you’d even suggested that to its dogmatic designer, he’d have shot you a look of such withering, intense scorn you’d have felt ashamed for being so soppy.”

“The company needed a vehicle to win back car buyers attracted to the thrifty ‘bubble cars’ that thrived after the Suez Crisis and resultant fuel shortages,” he notes. In 1956, Gamal Nasser-led Egypt assumed control of that essential shipping lane in the Middle East, garroting oil exports and raising costs.

“Issigonis agreed to take on the challenge,” Chapman says, “but only if he was given complete freedom to do it his way because he was brimming over with new ideas.”

Merchandising the Mini A front-wheel-drive layout maximized passenger and luggage capacity, eliminating a large back axle and a driveshaft running front-to-back. And, to fit BMC’s A-series engine, Issigonis positioned it transversely, rather than longitudinally, with the 4-speed gearbox underneath rather than end-on, Chapman explains.

Soppiness wasn’t signature Issigonis. In the tradition of economy-car pioneers as varied as the Fiat Topolino, the Citroen Type C and the Volkswagen Beetle, he “designed the Mini as an exercise in engineering logic of a purity rarely known before or since,” Chapman says. “In a little over two years, he created from scratch a car that could carry four adults within the smallest dimensions possible to allow reasonable comfort.”

Each of the front wheels received power through constantvelocity joints, and Issigonis neatly arranged the underhood space to ensure about 80 percent for the car’s cabin to accommodate four passengers and their baggage. An early ad, in fact, proudly shows four people and their possessions outside the car to show that, properly stowed, everyone, and everything, could take to the road together under one mobile roof.

The designer was well-known in the industry when, in 1956, he was asked by BMC to create the ultimate economy car, continuing a theme which had made Morris successful.

Production costs at BMC were small; frippery and fancies were banished in favor of post-war and oil-shortage austerity.

This kind of packaging was new. “But Issigonis’ orgy of innovation went further,” Chapman explains. The car included a compact suspension system with rubber cones rather than conventional springs; with the car’s small wheels, this helped to maximize interior space.

Conservative English buyers were wary of such an innovative machine. “Teething troubles” also occurred because of hurried development, and water leaks and flimsy exhausts were remedied only as production was rolling. But sales took hold, Chapman notes: “Owners began to experience something they’d never encountered before in an economy car: fun.”

Because of the front wheel drive and the wheels being seated, go-kartlike, at extreme corners the Mini demonstrated road holding that became well known on the track and the street, making for swift, safe and, again, fun transportation. “Together with precise, direct steering and superb weight distribution, the Mini felt fast even if it wasn’t actually very powerful,” he explains.

Formula 1 car builder John Cooper liked a beefed-up Mini, too, so he produced one with a tuned engine, extra carburetor and disc front brakes: The legendary Mini Cooper was born in 1961. “The combination of added engine power and the Mini’s surefooted handling made the car a phenomenon on racetracks and rally circuits throughout the 1960s, and well beyond,” Chapman says.

Later famous drivers did their apprenticeships with the Mini, stars such as Jochen Rindt, James Hunt and Niki Lauda. Writes Chapman in MINI: “Lauda started racing a secondhand Cooper S while vainly trying to keep his antics a secret from disapproving, fearful parents. . . . These days F1 prodigies start out in karts, but back then, it was usually Minis.” (p. 61).

The street spoke, too, with buyers customizing their Mini Coopers to the height of their creativity and depth of their

wallets. “The quickest cars for getting across London now became the most luxurious, too, with Rolls-Royce-style seats, dark-tinted windows, walnut dashboards and built-in tape recorders,” Chapman says.

Variants were produced, such as the popular Mini van for merchants and the Mini Traveller for family hauling, kids, canines and full kit. And, celebrities loved them. Autonut Peter Sellers, as inept Inspector Clouseau, drove them in the first two Pink Panther movies, and Mike Nesmith of the Monkees rock group spent about $8,000 for a superlatively upgraded version: perhaps the most expensive Mini ever built. The Mini even sang for all four members of the Beetles.

And Steve McQueen, the car- and motorcycle-loving actor, also had one. Enzo Ferrari, too. And ballet star, Margot Fonteyn.

Popularity peaked in 1971, when a best-ever 318,000 Minis were sold. But a new “super-mini” was emerging, such as the Ford Fiesta with a hatchback third door and folding rear seats. “It was still fun to drive but was now more comfortable and practical,” Chapman says. “They stole Mini sales and started to make Alec Issigonis’ little gem seem rather dated.”

Other road hazards were ahead. British Leyland required a bail-out by the British government in 1975. The Mini suffered, and the car aged.

Fortunately, fans everywhere and wealthy Mini fanatics in Japan provided enough demand. In 1990, the Mini Cooper made a welcome return after being axed in 1971, and the feisty car, quite astonishingly, survived another decade.

BMW Takes the Wheel In 1994 BMW took over. Although the German company recognized the status of the marque, British and German designers and engineers exchanged overheated remarks in a number of tongues, including Automotive, so when the new car was revealed in 2001, changes were evident.

thinking, more Maxi than Mini. “Owners of the new MINI, meanwhile, just enjoy it as the premium product it now is,” Chapman says. “They’re largely unaware its 1959 ancestor is the most influential single car Britain has ever produced.”

Six Decades of Delicious Motoring

In spirit with the new ownership, the new MINI focused on the Mini Cooper performance, image and heritage. The new BMWled car was larger overall but not particularly spacious inside: a fun “hot hatchback” with vivid retro overtones. “But it was for well-paid professionals, not a bargain-priced family tin box,” Chapman explains.

•Austin Se7en/Morris Mini-Minor –– Debuting August 26, 1959, the first Minis were near-identical cars sold as the Austin Se7en and the Morris Mini, at about £496 (or around $1,200 at the time in United States currency). Issigonis’ minimalism meant details such as cords to slam the door, not handles, sliding windows and a dial in the center of a dashboard that was basically a parcel shelf.

Still, the new MINI was exhilarating to drive and could be personalized with options and liveries worthy of the BMW echelon. Soon there was an entire family of MINI cars, including convertibles, Clubman estates and Countryman fourwheel drive versions.

•Mini Cooper S –– With racer John Cooper’s involvement, Mini Cooper S cars won the Monte Carlo Rally three times, in 1964, ’65 and ’67. It finished first in 1966, too, but was disqualified for a rule-breaking headlight setting. The Mini Cooper S became a 100 mph car with the 76-bhp 1275-cc model in 1964.

In 2006, another all-new replacement debuted, with similar exterior and upgrades for optimum performance, economy, emissions and safety. Eight years later, the car was transformed again, including new engines; the first five-door model appeared. The MINI became a global player, including the United States, where the original car had been more a novelty, Chapman says.

•Mini Clubman –– In 1969, with the Mini now a part of the troubled British Leyland, the little car received a new more conventional nose, an improved interior, an 1100-cc engine and wind-down windows. Purists were not happy, but it sold amazingly well against new “superminis” like the Renault 5 and Fiat 127.

Owners of the original iteration love that one and dislike the new, claiming it’s too big, too fancy, betraying Issigonis’ purist

Volume XVI, Number 12

•Mini Cooper –– Through the 1990s, the original Mini was sustained by demand from Japan where, Chapman notes, “it became a late-life cult object. In fact, that country’s pressure

revived the spirit and style of the 1960s original albeit updated with items such as a catalytic converter, fuel-injection and a driver airbag.

very little different from the first one in 1959,” Chapman says.

“The engine and body were practically identical. Its survival throughout that time is an eye-opening story in itself.”

•MINI Cooper –– The BMW MINI began in 2001, redesigned for sporty luxury rather than economy for the budget-minded.

“They were still great to drive, but they could be personalized to the nth degree,” Chapman says, noting that this helped to etch the car into the U.S. market.

Replacing the Mini with the MINI was tough. But BMW essentially reincarnated the Mini Cooper for the new millennium and its astute millennial buyers. “The Anglo-German process was fraught,” Chapman says, “but the result was a compact car that stoked desire, and pride, in a new way, while offering every safety, comfort and convenience factor the 21st-century consumer expects as a matter of course.”

•MINI Electric –– The internal combustion engine, all that Issigonis knew about motive power, is showing its silver with global concern about climate change. The third-generation of revived the MINI has a range of 145 miles on one charge and an all-digital dashboard. The future is up ahead.

The Mini/MINI has charisma. “The driving experience has always been joyful –– scintillating even –– whether the power offered is meagre or mighty,” Chapman says. Many are called to small cars, but everyone who enjoys the joy of driving wants a Mini/MINI. The Mini was a constant in Britain’s motoring scene for 41 vicissitudinous years. “The last car made in 2000 really was

Volume XVI, Number 12

The MINI has the distinctiveness of the original and has expanded into a range of cars, Chapman says, noting, “Any driver who loves cars with character must hope the MINI continues to maintain its very characterful place within the folds of the car industry as it fights its way into an uncertain future.”

Reads on Rides Titles Under the Tree written by David M. Brown Car-lovers aren’t tough to buy for this or any holiday season.

Gift them a classic book about their automotive passion.

Here are a few to keep your car aficionado as much a fan of wonderful you as the wonders of the ride.

•MINI: 60 Years, Giles Chapman –– On August 26, the Mini/MINI celebrated 60 years since its debut at the beginning of the economy-car age, when owning a small car started becoming a big idea. Through 2000, 5,300,000 of the original Mini were manufactured, making it the bestselling single British car ever. In handsome prose and with clean-cut details, veteran automotive writer Giles Chapman fully covers the marque, including the vision of creator Alex Issigonis, the early iterations, the famous Cooper to the just-released electric MINIs under BMW leadership.

Among the 200 photos are nostalgic ads (“Wizardry on Wheels!”), historic photos and fun shots such as Rowan Atkinson’s issue-plagued Mr. Bean riding atop a 1970s version in a precariously strapped-down arm chair. Fun ride. (176 pages, Hardcover, $40, QuartoKnows.com) •Claude Deane: Western Australia’s Motor Dealer Extraordinaire, Graeme Cocks –– How did a Renault Type N, the street version of one of the fastest racing cars from 1903, make its way to the Western Australia outback?

And, who sold the first car there, Claude Deane or Percy Armstrong? A pioneer of the motor car in the area, Deane took a motorized tricycle to the outback to announce the arrival of the motoring age, drove the first Oldsmobile in the southwest corner of the state and set up a network of sellers, becoming its largest car importer. Here is the story of the rise, fall and rise again of Deane and why he left Western Australia and never returned. (214 pages, Hardcover, $30, motoringpast.com.au)

Volume XVI, Number 12

•The Complete Book of Porsche 911: Every Model Since 1964, Randy Leffingwell –– This is the updated 3rd edition by the California-based author/photographer, who has completed 47 other automotive books. All the 911s are included: the prototype 901; the 1963–1998 air-cooled cars; the current water-cooled versions; the GT2 and GT3s; and the newest 992s, revealed in November 2018 at the Los Angeles Auto Show. Ferdinand Porsche’s great car is illustrated by the author’s photography as well as historical images, and technical specs are included for each model.

At any speed, a joy to read. (344 pages, Hardcover, $40, quartoknows.com) •Secret Route 66: A Guide to the Weird, Wonderful, and Obscure, Jim Ross and Shellee Graham –– Visit the underground caves at the Grand Canyon Caverns (Arizona); 7,000-foot Starvation Peak, which Spaniards once climbed to escape the Navajos and starved to death (New Mexico); the abandoned Fancy Creek Bridge (Illinois); and other locations on America’s “Mother Road.” Writers and photographers Ross and Graham live on Route 66 in Arcadia, Oklahoma, so they know all the road markers.
